Abstract: The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is currently providing users of the Internet with a running time-of-day clock on a web page. It uses a combination of Hyper Text Markup Language (HTML), Perl, Java and JavaScript to show the time for a chosen time zone. Processing and path delays are estimated to provide the client with an idea of how close the time displayed is to Coordinated Universal Time - UTC(NIST). Several future possibilities and uses of this technology will be discussed.
